The Devil You Know

FLOTATION ADVICE Dear Editor: “Stick-and-Rudder Realities” (February
2005, page 23) included a number of good points. This quotation from Jerry
Wharton, however, was not among them: “It does not take a rocket scientist to
run a boat on a river. You can sit there and have a few beers and relax . . . .”
As a retired executive, current investor, owner/operator of a 60-foot motoryacht
and holder of a USCG 100-ton master captain’s license, I agree that, while
multifaceted, driving a boat is not rocket science. Notwithstanding, responsible
operators and all professional captains never, ever drink while operating any
kind of watercraft. Fred Mosser Chatham, Mass.
